Windows 7 - Notification area

Notification area

I've read Brink's excellent tutorial on how to change this area's settings. I changed the length of time a message appears. I'd like to test what I've done. How do I create a benign notification or action center message to test how long it remains on the screen? Thanks.

turn your firewall off Windows 7 doesn't like that very much and you should get your test notification

Cool! Good idea. Thanks.

My notifications are set to last 15 seconds, but they're lasting only 9 seconds. What's with that??
